It is interesting to note that as that distributive inequality has turned into a lucrative windfall that attitudes have hardened to what is a fundamental problem.
Maybe we're just getting tired of all the repetitive whining threads that crop up every time someone new feels jealous of the people who got in before them.

Again, you guys really need to grow beyond this ridiculous idea that everyone who has a different view is riven with jealousy. If you missed my post I own a significant number of Bitcoins, and am gradually gifting them to good causes. I want no part in a grubby get rich quick scheme;
This isn't a get rich quick scheme. It's a new currency. The digital equivalent of gold. And you're whining because the people who took the big risks back when it was a big risk have seen gains from that. And hey, if you're interested in distributing the coins evenly, there's an empty wallet in my signature. I promise any coins deposited will go to further the bitcoin economy. Specifically, I'll buy things with them. Grin

You're not a good cause, merely a lost one.

Again I ask. What 'big risk' was undertaken by those mining Bitcoins at the lowest difficulty?
